As DTM CRS3035RES50000mN2850000E4600000 elevation grid 1 m cut-off date 15.9.2022

55 tiles of airborne laser scanning data cover the territory of Austria. This digital terrain elevation model describes the earth's natural surface in a regular 1-meter grid, georeferenced in European coordinate systems. The data is a cooperation product of Austrian federal and state spatial data providers, with a cut-off date of September 15, 2022.

Use Cases

• Modeling hydrological flow and watersheds based on the detailed 1-meter terrain surface.
• Planning infrastructure projects like roads or power lines using the bare-earth elevation data.
• Conducting visibility and line-of-sight analysis for telecommunications or defense planning.
• Creating base layers for 3D landscape visualization and simulation.

Strengths

• Data is provided as a 1-meter resolution grid, offering high spatial detail.
• The dataset consists of 55 tiles that together provide complete coverage of Austria.
• Data is georeferenced to European coordinate systems, ensuring interoperability.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified beyond the stated cut-off date.
• Row count and total file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
